[Verse 1]
We built forever at home
Forever ain't true
On this dinosaur island of green
The sky's always blue

[Pre-Chorus]
For now, we could stay here
Far from the power line hum
For now, we could lay here
Let the sand cook our skin in the sun

[Chorus]
In Hanalei, we could stay
We could sell anything that isn't nailed down
In Hanalei, we could say
We could say the hell with forever
And be here together right now

[Verse 2]
Sunset just came and then went
Now a fingernail moon
Packed up and ready to roll
But the flight ain't 'til noon

[Pre-Chorus]
For now, we could stay here
Far from the power line hum
For now, we could lay here
Let the sand cook our skin in the sun
[Chorus]
In Hanalei, we could stay
We could sell anything that isn't nailed down
In Hanalei, we could say
We could say the hell with forever
And be here together right now

[Bridge]
If we leave now
Do we risk breakin' the spell?
Can we stay here
Away from the maddening carousel?

[Chorus]
In Hanalei, we could stay
Let's just sell anything that isn't nailed down
In Hanalei, we could stay in Hanalei
In Hanalei, we could stay
Let's just sell anything that isn't nailed down
In Hanalei, we could stay
We could say the hell with forever
And be here together right now

[Outro]
We built forever at home
Forever ain't true
